AnonD-352445, 25 Jan 2017it won't come to india soon because they won't be able to k... moreyeah you right here,

they might also be keeping in mind that in India they need to launch All variants
Low end(8K to 15K) Mid range(15K to 25k) and high end(30k +), with mid end models with the highest demand,
so i think they will release those phones in MWC and within 2 months they will be available in India, waiting for a long time for this xD

poor phillipines buddies, nokia 6 is not officially launched there, it's imported by a online seller, thus it is way too costly for them right now, felling sad for them

    tonymancs, 26 Jan 2017Yeah we still here, waiting eagerly. You are really funny. ... moreOk you tell me, from 2010-2014, who was using Nokia's boring Symbian and Windows phones? Not that im denying their state of the art camera phones' success in that period but still, they cannot be compared to that era's iPhones and Galaxies and plenty of other Android phones of that time. So bro take a chill pill, we are about to see this year that where Nokia will stand now. Dont rush.

      consumersmartphone, 26 Jan 2017Exactly, your experiences are the same as that guy who test... more1) Did I tell someone to buy it?
      2) I don't care about how many phone vendors have you tried, their phones with SD 430 lag right after a short time while Nokia 6 not. That Nokia 6 in video has already bunch of external apps installed. it's over a week and on JD.com are over 2200 user reviews of Nokia 6 with 97% rating avg.
      3) You are at every Nokia page, trying to criticize it based on points that I've already mentioned as invalid. And you are not a hater? Hardware- wise. It maybe unimpressive. But have in mind it's the first mid-range to come with perfectly optimalized Nougat. You can get Nougat on other phones latter but you will never get the same out-of-the-box experiences and optimalization. And it's built like a tank.
      4) My HTC M8 has better SoC (SD 801), no heating issues as SD 810 and about the same battery capacity as Nokia 6. And I'am surely lighter user than you and get the same battery life. 1 day is today standard.

      Right, I have no other proofs than those reviews but the same apply to you, you are mercilessly attack my brand, using a bit reasonable logic based on low-end processor to find other haters, who are also specs-obessed, to go up against us. I rarely go to other phone pages to complain about them, yet you and many others are doing this. You are trying to create negative publicity about our brand. Overpriced for you? Don't buy it. We fans gonna buy it. I'll be glad if you would not go there anymore. Bye.

        tonymancs, 26 Jan 2017"You said: Your experiences come from short-term (1-2 weeks... moreExactly, your experiences are the same as that guy who tested Nokia 6. And your phones lag when his Nokia 6 not. All short-time tests. Really? We often test the phone for 3 to six months, we get pay for that. I tell you: my phone right now is S7, XZ, Mi5, that for daily use.

        But I tested SD430 powered phone from several vendor and you not, then you claim I'm hater when I tell you my experience. Everybody will be hater with your mind, this democracy bro, cheer.

          tonymancs, 26 Jan 20171 day cycle? Damn that's very good for a (lowend) SoC. You ... morePlease answer this: we realy want to know.
          Have you ever use SD430 powered phone? 1 day/1 cycle charge.

          You sure that NOKIA 6 has OS and optimalization better than other used SD430 phone? Why?

          If not for great optimalization and large RAM: Its okay so if you have SD430+great optimalization and large RAM (6 GB)?

          If that was Xiaomi, Vivo, Oppo, Huawei, Samsung, in video and run so smooth with SD430 you will deny it in every posibility?

          You don't have to go here and worry about our wallet and gather other haters to go against us at the same time. Me? Hater? lol
          You are Nokia Sales Promotion Girl that atract people to buy NOKIA 6 with SD430 for $300? Are you? LOL

            Exactly, your experiences are the same as that guy who tested Nokia 6. And your phones lag when his Nokia 6 not. All short-time tests. At least just stay back and watch Nokia's comeback. Please don't criticize.

              consumersmartphone, 26 Jan 2017Thanks for educated me, with your educated me I think they ... more1 day cycle? Damn that's very good for a (lowend) SoC. You are surely heavier user than me, I browse web 5h+ /day and get 1 day charge cycle with HTC M8 (SD 801) with 2600 mAh batterry. 4g/lte on only when browsing. 6 months in use. Nokia 6 will mainly attract old fans. It's unattractive SoC and uninnovative design is not enough for specs-obessed users like you who maybe didn't use any old school Nokia phones. You don't have to go here and worry about our wallet and gather other haters to go against us at the same time. Nokia 6 will sell, sell and sell.

                I have see that video and I amaze too but I have that experience with few phone powered SD430. So nothing special with that, I dont hate Nokia, my first to 3rd phone is Nokia, All my family is Nokia. I just telling you people my experience and why I regret to Nokia business act to costumer.

                  Yes, I'll buy it for 300$, if flagship is too expensive or uninnovative, after seeing more testing and after release in Europe. A few more months of waiting should be enough. >> Good luck with this LOL

                  Please somebody respond it.

                    AadiRizvi, 26 Jan 2017Nokia fans are still alive? Where were you hiding all this ... moreYeah we still here, waiting eagerly. You are really funny. Nokia Mobile completely died in 2014- tell me what have "revolutionazed" since then? You can still use Galaxy S5/ Note 4 and miss nothing. NOTHING! I would like you to convince me the other way. Please go on.

                      Your experiences come from short-term (1-2 weeks) testing, therefore your experiences on phones you mentioned are just like with brand new phones. Nokia 6 tested in YT videos show absolutely no sign of lag even with 10+ apps in background, simultaneous music player/game (LoL clone)/ browser running and multiwindow tasking. I didn't use many phones but my experiences come from long-term use and experimental ROM flashing.

                        consumersmartphone, 26 Jan 2017Your said on other comments: As I have seen reviews on YT t... moreYes, I'll buy it for 300$, if flagship is too expensive or uninnovative, after seeing more testing and after release in Europe. A few more months of waiting should be enough.
                        I've seen your argument about device lag, now let me educate you:
                        1) low battery: because the phone switch to saver mode automatically
                        2) many opened apps: Android has quasi-multitasking- apps running too long in background and has no priority will be automatically closed, their last action saved and reactivated after reopening.
                        3) browsing with many tabs- tabs work the same way as apps- inactives one are closed and get actived latter- their "tab icon" is still shown and their last page address are saved. Even

                        4) downloading big files- eat up your band, slowing browsing, not your phone
                        5) unstable LTE- really???
                        6) heat, bugs: SD 430 is not SD 810. No reported bugs yet

                        Remember: OS and optimalization play great roles too. I'vs stated this to an other post for you.

                        If not for great optimalization and large RAM (help your phone load large apps data faster, helps your phone running smoother even after years) a phone with SD 430 could not even run Nougat, let alone that smoothly. I'am sorry but your arguments are invalid. Ofcourse I'am waiting for Nokia flagship but I think N6 is pretty good too. I need a phone that can last at least 2 years. The only one that could satisfy me until now, excluding Nokias, is Samsung Galaxy Ace 2. Both iPhone 4s and HTC M8 failed to meet my expectation.

                          I think the only time that you really looked a Nokia Android phone was that if they were able to put the PureView technology on their camera and uses a Carl Zeiss optics. But for now, it's just MEH
